instagram.com

instagram.com records 5.05% AI opening share on this market and opened AI answers on 7 of 7 comparable runs. A social platform sharing the panel with facebook.com and youtube.com, it sits 13.41 percentage points behind the rank-1 actor.

Pattern on the observed surface

Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy · St Barthélemy · AI Overview · October 12–18, 2026

The panel mixes general-purpose platforms and focused source

The panel mixes general-purpose platforms and focused sources in roughly equal measure. Three social or aggregator platforms — facebook.com, youtube.com, instagram.com — appear alongside tripadvisor.com, while focused sources such as yachtcharterfleet.com, IYC, stbartsblue.com, Fraser Yachts, Northrop & Johnson, and masterski-pilou.com fill the remaining positions. The top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 7 combined, yet the spread of 14.29 percentage points between the first and last positions signals a surface where opening share is distributed unevenly without a single actor consolidating control. 8 of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs; 2 opened AI answers in fewer runs.

Why this reading matters

Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy · St Barthélemy · AI Overview · October 12–18, 2026

facebook.com's rank-1 position on this opening-control rail is notable because it is a social platform rather than a specialist operator — AI Overviews on this market reach for user-generated content before any focused charter source when composing their opening answers. The contrast between the platform-led opening surface and the focused sources clustered behind it is the defining structural feature of this panel.

Market implication

Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy · St Barthélemy · AI Overview · October 12–18, 2026

The AI Overview opening-control surface for Luxury Yacht Charter St. Barthélemy is structurally fragmented as observed across these 7 runs, with no entrenched position at the top. The rank-1 actor is a social platform, and the 9 sources behind facebook.com range from 13.63% down to 4.18%. For any operator monitoring AI visibility on this market, the observation signals that the opening slot is contested and that platform content currently fills the primacy position AI reaches for first.

FAQ

What does AI opening share measure?
AI opening share measures which source AI Overviews reach for first when composing an answer. It captures the opening-control slot — who opens the AI answer — not general citation share across the full AI Overview response, and not organic search ranking.
Does this card prove a longer-term trend?
This observation does not establish a longer-term trend. It reports cumulative AI opening share across 7 comparable scheduled runs in the observation period October 12–18, 2026. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates; future windows may produce different results.
Why does a social platform hold the rank-1 position?
The card observes which sources AI Overviews cite at the opening of their answers. It does not measure brand reputation, business-market position, or user trust. facebook.com's rank-1 position reflects how AI composed its opening answers across this market's governed query panel during this window.
